Be warned that this is a one-CD collection: the second disc listed on the liner notes is not included. The songs that are part of the collection run the gamut, all of them representative of the Salsoul stable of artists. Innocent soul-oriented dance songs like "Dr. Love" sit side by side with the gospel-inflected pop projects of Loleatta Holloway ("Hit and Run," "Runaway"). Included are a great remix of "I Got My Mind Made Up" and original versions of Inner Life's "Moment of My Life" and Love Committee's "Just As Long As I Got You." The incredible Walter Gibbons remix of the latter song is available on the Forever Disco CD.

In the begining thier was house.......and before that thier was SALSOUL!!!! The root of house music started with salsoul. This cd captures some of the best songs that they produced. To say that this is just another disco cd, would be doing it a grave disjustice. It would be like calling the Mona Lisa just a painting or the statue of Dave just a rock. This is a compilation of the best dance music ever recorded. The blend of rebel rosing vocals and smooth lyrical contents with the monstrative rythems are timeless classics. My only regret is they didn't release all of thier gems out on one compliation. This is a must have for any disco, house, dance, or r&b collection.
